Answer:
0.5667 M ≅ 0.57 M.
Explanation:
It is known that the no. of millimoles of a solution before dilution is equal to the no. of millimoles of the solution after the dilution.
It can be expressed as:
(MV) before dilution = (MV) after dilution.
M before dilution = 1.5 M, V before dilution = 340 mL.
M after dilution = ??? M, V after dilution = 340 mL + 560 mL = 900 mL.
∴ M after dilution = (MV) before dilution/(V) after dilution = (1.5 M)(340 mL)/(900 mL) = 0.5667 M ≅ 0.57 M.
